The Reunion After Seven Years

Chapter 277 They Are Safe

As Moore stared at the baby, he could not help but smile. "He... He is so tiny," he whispered under his breath. As a matter of fact, it was the first time that Moore saw a newborn baby in person and up close like this, so naturally, he was very curious.

After giving Moore some time, the nurse then excused herself and wheeled the baby into the nursery room.

Moore then followed behind. When the nurse left the room, he looked at the baby again and said softly, "You are my only hope, dear one. Sooner or later, this world will be yours. I will make sure of it."

A faint smile then appeared on his face.

Meanwhile, on the other room, Sunny finally woke up. Lying down, she looked around her and started to panic as soon as she felt her belly light and flat as if a huge part of her was taken away from her. Her eyes widened with worry as she shouted, "My child!" She tried to sit up to look around, but it was still too painful to move, so all she could do was grimace in pain and keep her back on the bed.

Seeing that Sunny had now woken up, Dr. Chen rushed towards her and kept her from making any move that would cause pain. "Don't worry, Miss He. The baby is fine and healthy. He is just in the nursery room, where a nurse is looking after him." Dr. Chen comforted her. As he saw Sunny calming down a bit, he looked at her with pity and could not help but feel sorry for her. When she was in dire need of company, there was no one by her side to comfort her and just be with her.

As for Sunny, however, she did not care about all this. All she cared about was her baby and that she could finally bring the baby to this world after hiding the baby away from everyone else. The baby was her only hope to marry Kerr.

Hearing the comforting words from Dr. Chen, Sunny then nodded at this and relaxed. Soon, exhaustion took over her once more, making her eyes close satisfactorily and placing her back into a deep

slumber.

On the other hand, in the living room of the villa, Daniel walked in angrily. "Moore! Where the hell are you?!" he shouted as he strode in deeper into the residence. Ever since Sunny disappeared without any note, Daniel had highly suspected that Moore had something to do with it.

That was why he sent someone to tail after Moore in secret, but Moore was sly and stealthy, making Daniel disappointed and frustrated for a while. Until today, when Moore's footsteps could now be seen and Sunny's whereabouts were revealed. Daniel stopped and stood at the center of the living room. With an angry look on his face, he looked around this unfamiliar place.

"What brings you here, Mr. He?" With a respectful bow, the maid asked as soon as she walked in the living room after hearing Daniel's shouts. After all, the maid had recognized Daniel. However, Daniel ignored her and walked past her, heading towards the flight of stairs that he just noticed. The maid then knew better than to stop a highly respected person.

On the other hand, the maid wasn't the only one who heard Daniel. With a huge smile on his face, Moore walked downstairs and stopped midway as he saw Daniel about to take the stairs. Daniel stopped as soon as he saw Moore and glared at him, while Moore replied with a bigger smile. After all, he didn't need to hide anything from Daniel anymore. Sunny had already given birth to the child, so everything had been settled.

"Where the hell did you hide Sunny? Is she here? Answer me! Sunny, are you here? Sunny! Come out this instant!" Daniel shouted loud enough, so that if his daughter was really here, she should hear him. In the past few months ever since Sunny disappeared, Daniel had been putting pressure on the Gu family and did not stop to look for Sunny.

As a father, he was very worried about his daughter and even more every minute that passed without news about her, but the thought that the Gu family, especially Moore, had most likely something to do

with it made him boil with rage. Belongs to (N)ôvel/Drama.Org.

"You are wrong, Mr. He. I did not hide her. You know better than anyone else how Sunny had been suffering recently because of a vicious man, and the wedding was the biggest blow she could receive. She became heartbroken to the point that she wanted to leave this miserable place. Since I am her best friend, I felt sorry for her and decided then to help her with any way that I can.

As a matter of fact, Sunny has been staying here and making herself at home ever since then, so calm down and don't worry much. She and the baby are completely fine," Moore said. He then walked up to Daniel and led him back into the living room where they could talk. Moore sat down on the sofa and gestured for Daniel to sit as well before he ordered the maid to serve them tea.

However, Daniel did not move nor sit on the sofa. He just stood there, not buying anything about Moore was saying. "What baby? Are you saying that Sunny didn't abort Kerr's child? That's ridiculous! Where the hell is she right now? Show me to her!" Daniel had been wanting Sunny to abort the child. Since Sunny wasn't married to Kerr, once she gave birth to that baby, her reputation and dignity would slowly be ruined and crumble into pieces.

At this point, the maid came back with a tray of tea cups. Moore reached out and took a sip of his tea. Contrary to Daniel's mood at the very moment, Moore was calm and composed. Satisfied with the tea, he looked up at Daniel's angry face and smiled at him. "Mr. He, what are you still angry about? You should be happy. Twenty minutes ago, your beloved daughter just gave birth to a healthy baby boy.

Congratulations for being a grandfather, Mr. He. Actually, why don't we celebrate?"

Moore gave him another smile. He knew that this news would be a big blow to Daniel. As a matter of fact, if there weren't so many people wanting Sunny to abort the child, Moore would not have hidden Sunny and made this much effort on her.

Upon hearing what Moore had said, Daniel immediately felt his blood pressuring rising with his hands clenched into fists. Then, he could not help but hold his forehead with one hand and tremble with anger to the point that he had to place his other hand on the wall to support himself.

He then heaved a very heavy sigh and stood up straight once more. He was trying to compose himself, but his face betrayed him for he looked like he was going to explode any moment now. He glared back at Moore and asked, "Sunny, my daughter, really gave birth to that bastard?" Daniel could not understand why his daughter, who he had raised like a princess, would sacrifice herself and risk everything for a man.

When Moore heard Daniel call the baby a bastard, he could not help but turn grim. It was his child, so how dare Daniel call his baby a bastard? Even though he wanted so bad to strike back at Daniel, Moore didn't and kept his calm by taking another sip of the tea.

"Mr. He, why are you still frustrated? In fact, you should be very happy that they are safe now. Besides, what's done is done. She already gave birth to the baby," Moore said. Then he placed the tea cup back on its saucer and walked towards Daniel.

"If I were in your shoes, I wouldn't keep wasting my time getting angry on things I could not take back anymore. Instead, I'll do something that I can control, such as making Sunny marry into the Gu family with a grand wedding. With that, problem's solved," he added.

Moore stopped in front of Daniel to wait for his reply. Although he was aware that Daniel was not that stupid to fall into his trap like Sunny, he was still a father, who loved his daughter very much, and would do anything to protect her. In short, Sunny was Daniel's weakness.

Daniel eyed Moore intently, trying to read between the lines. Then, he decided not to reply to Moore's suggestion, and instead, he asked with a calm tone, "Where is Sunny? I want to see my daughter."

After all, Daniel thought that whatever steps he took to resolve Sunny's issues was a matter for the He family. Since Moore was an outsider, he did not want him to get involved in this affair.

Besides, the thought that Moore was able to hide Sunny for a long time without being discovered by anyone made Daniel even more guarded in front of this careful and vicious man.

Moore stared at Daniel for a moment and said, "Well, of course you can see her. I'll ask someone to take you to see Sunny. Take it in mind that she just gave birth to the baby, so she's still very weak now and needs more rest." He smiled at Daniel, who now just looked like a worried father.

Then he asked the maid to lead the way for Daniel. As Daniel walked upstairs, a satisfied smile spread over Moore’s face.

Meanwhile, as the waves pushed lightly on the yacht,

Kerr was sitting on his chair comfortably and was reading over emails on his laptop, when Jared walked over towards him. "Excuse me, Mr. Gu. This is the latest news that we have received. As of the moment, all board members of the Gu Group are calling on Moore to step down.

Your father then has no choice but to give him an ultimatum. It seems that it won't be long that your father will send someone to ask you back to your position," Jared said, reporting the progress of the investigation.

However, Kerr did not say anything, and he did not even show any sign of delight on his face. He just kept his attention on his laptop.

"Mr. Gu, are you really not going to take your place back in the Gu Group?" Jared asked when Kerr did not say anything for a while. The look on Kerr's face gave Jared a hint to what Kerr was thinking.

Sighing, Kerr turned his head towards Nicole and Jay sitting not far away from him. The mother and son were observing a pail of fish that they had gotten from the sea. The scene made Kerr smile. He started to feel even more relaxed as he savored this quiet and harmonious moment.

Without giving Jared a glance, he said, "Nicole is already eight months along, and so the next one to two months will be the most critical time. I want to be there for every step of the way for Nicole and see to it with my own eyes that she will be able to give birth safely to a healthy baby girl. Until then, I believe that it is not a wise decision to come back now."

Ever since Kerr had committed himself to Nicole, he had decided that in every major decision that he was going to make, he would put Nicole and their family first.

As Jared listened to Kerr's response, he followed Kerr's gaze and also saw the smile on Nicole's face. She was not as stunning and beautiful as celebrities and highly desired women, but her smile still had an effect to anyone who saw it. That Jared could see. The smile affected anyone to the point that they would drop everything, sacrifice, and risk everything just to see that smile of hers.

Then again, Jared knew he had to think rationally for Kerr and said, "But Mr. Gu, you can't let Moore take over Gu Group, not now that your men are helping to take him down. Moreover, your father is already starting to regret his decision of replacing you with Moore, so I believe that this is the best time to take advantage of the situation. If you miss this opportunity, then it will be such a pity."
